This title introduces the life and work of some of the best-known classic children's writers from around the world, such as Lewis Carroll, J.R.R. Tolkien, Frances Hodgson Burnett, and E.B. White. Each includes a short biography, brief summaries and quotes from key works, and a short quote by a contemporary writer. Illustrated with historical pictures and photographs, this volume should be an engaging and useful source of introductory information on classic writers that children will encounter in English classes and in their own reading.
